Encoding for Vietnamese Characters

[jobnomade]

Hi guys,

I am working on represent.vn and came to the issue that the address are not properly encoded when ADDING, EDITING the places.

When INSERTing the address with Vietnamese chars I added _utf8'$address' (file add.php).

However when reading/editing the places I still have an encoding issue.
Example:
In the DB I have the correct encoding as followed
466/4 Lê Quang Định, 11, Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

When I want to edit I got this:
55/14 Tran Van Dang, Phuong 9, quan 3, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam

What can we do to solve this?

I found out that the admin/header.php is missing <meta charset="UTF-8"> which causes character issue in the edit view. Let me know if you need a fix for this, so I can send the changed files.

it out.
